Chatty Hollywood

　　 "It seems to be fine tonight, did I really guess wrong?"

　　 At two o’clock in the middle of the night, I circled around the crew’s camp again. Charlotte was sitting on a nearby hillside with beef jerky as hard as a rock in his mouth, but he was still thinking about it--

　　 From the first visit, Charlotte knew that the location they chose Vianes Valley was a bit ghostly. And when the former director Alan McElroy and the heroine Eliza Kunis disappeared here, and the local police heard the news that many people had disappeared in the vicinity two years ago, he became more aware of—

　　 "This ghost place is 80% real!"

　　 This is not only a logical inference, but to a certain extent, it is also a delight for someone who has learned spells for a long time but has little chance to practice it. In fact, if a ghost is really found here, Charlotte is still ready to catch it and use it for the crew to make a movie. After all, when shooting a horror movie or a ghost movie, there is nothing better than having a real ghost in his hand. More convenient? It can save a lot of special effects costs. Let alone create a horrible atmosphere, the role that real ghosts can play is far more than a simple art setting.

　　 Actually, when shooting movies these days, Charlotte did use a lot of magic secretly. Deliberately using spells to increase the horror feeling of the cannibal, used to scare the two supporting actresses who made trouble for him, let alone the simple setting of the scene, the spell also gave him a lot of help——

Apart from other things, just talk about the opening scene, a man and a woman two pure dragon rock climbers being killed by an ogre on the edge of the cliff. In the original version of "Fatal Bend", here is just an introduction to the horror of the film. The background of the film, so as not to make the audience drowsy and lose their curiosity by the long and flat padded shots behind.

To be honest, this is not terrible at the beginning. At least after watching many horror movies, Charlotte, who is accustomed to American curious and bloody, seems to be a little bit too far off the table-after all, the death of a male rock climber has no camera performance at all. , Only gave the audience a result of the corpse being thrown off the cliff; as for the female rock climber, she was dragged away by the flying chains at the last moment when she saw the car, but there are indeed some horror movies in the moment when hope comes. It feels like knocking you at once, but it's just normal.

When Charlotte himself shot the beginning of this, he buried a dead rooster under the rock climbing cliff in advance, so as to cast a spell to gather the faint ghosts that originally existed in the nearby forest. As a result, when shooting, it was just the cliff. The pervasive fog and the intermittent weird bugs in the mountains made the crew members who participated in the filming stand upright on their backs.

The captured images are also very good, the faint fog is quite a bit of "Silent Hill" feeling, and Charlotte and the photographer Addison designed a few lenses that are relative to the camera movement-although this The 3D era has not yet arrived. This kind of lens that is more suitable for highlighting the three-dimensional sense, like a rocket directly in front of the audience, does not have the sense of reality that people can't help but want to escape from later generations, but if the shooting is good, it is still full of impact.

In fact, when the photographer Edison watched the shots himself, he was surprised by the effects of these shots. At the beginning, the danger of the cliff was expressed from the perspective of a female dragon who was climbing, and the effect of rendering the atmosphere was far better. A general perspective, and the male dragon set that climbed to the top of the cliff first. After being caught and killed by the mutant ogre, the corpse was thrown directly from above, in order to simulate the perspective of the female dragon set still hanging on the cliff. It was shot by falling directly against the camera lens, and the resultant image was like the corpse of a male dragon falling straight from the screen to the viewer's face, which was a very impactful screen effect.

In order to film this shot, the hapless male dragon set was dangled by a group of people in the props team from a high place and put down several times back and forth-this was to photograph the fallen body of the male dragon set and the female hanging on the cliff. A picture of dragons staggered past. For the distant part, it is fine to use a dummy as a substitute, but for the close-up part, Charlotte hopes to have a close-up of the male dragon's face with a panic expression after death, so the actors themselves have to go into battle.

　　 "Good job, Brandon! Keep going, you will have a future!"

　　 After the filming, Charlotte specially encouraged this Mr. Longtuo who was about to be unable to straighten his waist by Wia. When he first saw his name, Charlotte was somewhat surprised-Brandon Fisher, this is the second Hollywood that Charlotte has known since Charlize, who has a name and a surname, but at this time is unknown. Movie star. The "Mummy" series that this monarch later starred in is also well-known in thrilling and horror movies. Of course, at this time, he is still a hard-working one. Even a rookie director like Charlotte can call him five and six.

"thanks!"

　　 Fisher smiled heartily, but the waist that was still unable to straighten immediately changed his smile.

　　 "But I think, after this time, I'll use a gun for action movies in the future! Diaowei Yatai is uncomfortable!"

　　 "Today is pretty good!"

　　 Charlotte has no sympathy for the future mummy hunter,

"We took the shots of you falling from the cliff. The actual shooting process was very slow. The props used Wia to put you down towards the camera bit by bit. To really achieve an impactful drop on the camera. The effect will have to be edited and accelerated in the later stage. If you use Avia like the Hong Kong people make martial arts movies, you will really be thrown out all at once."

　　 "Fortunately, we are not making martial arts movies."

　　 Thinking of the feeling of falling that he would have to face if he was thrown off the cliff, Fisher couldn’t help but turn blue.

　　 "But I always feel that Chinese martial arts movies are very unreal, and there is a feeling of watching science fiction movies."

　　 "It's not real!"

　　 Charlotte is also speechless for those guys in Europe and America who always like to see martial arts as science fiction.

　　 "Do you think that all Chinese are Bruce Lee, do you know Kung Fu?"

"Is not it?"

　　 "……"

　　-It seems normal for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" to win the Saturn Award for science fiction and horror movies.

　　 Thinking of the conversation that day, Charlotte couldn't help being amused.

　　 Actually, he himself doesn't feel much about martial arts movies. Although he can watch it, he is not very keen on it. Especially after he learned spells from the old ghost and learned some history hidden behind the history——

"Do you think that after learning the law, you can be a thousand riders, and your chest is broken? Do you remember the spells I taught you? Mainly relying on fraud and temptation, there are not many opportunities for real practice. Even if you have a certain level of cultivation After that, it does have a lot of power, and it is different from what you imagined to be a few stories high. Reaching out to defeat a large piece of martial arts is two different things!! Spells need to use your brain, and you must really practice it like that and fight the streets. What's the difference between a performer selling Daliwan!?"

　　——The old ghost has a deep contempt for the idea of ​​using magic as force. And after being taught by him for a few years, Charlotte was brought along with a similar view.

　　 "However, even if I want to use it as force, there is no way!"

It’s impossible to use spiritual power to practice through the previous era of the end of the law. I’m not going to say that, even if we are now in the 1990s, when we can practice, according to the current rate of progress, I want to practice magic to a level that surpasses conventional force. , Is not an easy task-after all, no matter how high martial arts is, you are afraid of kitchen knives, not to mention that the United States is still a fertile soil where you can hold guns at will-of course, if you really want to catch ghosts like the previous time I helped Charlize Demon, spells are indeed the best choice, but there must be ghosts to catch!

　　 Charlotte has been patrolling the camp every night in the last few days. The apparent reason is naturally to avoid accidents. This makes the members of the crew admire the director's carefulness. But what about the real purpose of catching ghosts and demons? But I didn't even see a ghost hair!

　　 "Heroes are useless!"

　　 Charlotte sighed secretly, wondering if she had made a mistake in her previous judgment.

"Ordinarily not! The concentration of ghost energy in this neighborhood obviously exceeds the standard of the normal virgin forest, even higher than many ancient battlefield relics I have visited before, and the abnormal number of missing nearby is high ~ www.readwn. com~ also shows that there must be a problem here! Speaking of it, this feeling is a bit like the scene in the hundred thousand mountains in the southwest described by the old ghost, isn't it..."

　　 Charlotte was thinking, but suddenly heard a "click". The sound is very soft, but in this silent night, it is not difficult to hear.

　　 "It seems to be the sound of branches being broken or stepped on."

　　Although he immediately turned his head to the direction of the sound, Charlotte didn't pay much attention to it. This kind of thing happened in the last few nights-people have three urgency. Camping in this kind of mountain forest, if you want convenience at night, naturally you can only go farther out, and it’s normal to step on the dead branches and break the wood. Things. In fact, if he encounters a woman, he has to hide away quickly, lest the other party think he has any bad intentions.

　　 "Sure enough..."

　　 Charlotte's eyes are not bad. Although it is difficult to see clearly in the middle of the night, you can still see the two figures in the distance, obviously with a feminine curve. He was about to avoid further, but suddenly realized--

　　 "The direction they are coming from, isn't it a cannibal?"

　　 The cannibal is the only fixed house nearby. Although the decoration is very simple, there are still toilets. Although the crew arranged the inside for the convenience of filming with a sense of horror while filthy, but it is more convenient for you to run farther in the middle of the night than in the middle of the night. Charlotte feels that Charlize and the others who now live in it may be more willing. Endure the horror that the props bring.

　　-After all, many of the props in horror movies are actually not very scary if they are not in movies.

　　 "Could it be..."

　　 Charlotte subconsciously opened the yin and yang eyes that had just been successful in cultivation, but found that near the two silhouettes, there were two other ghosts that appeared extremely pale in the night.
